Akshay Kumar is all set to amuse audiences with the horror-comedy Bhooth Bangla. Directed by Priyadarshan, the film was initially scheduled for an April 10 release. However, it has been postponed to April 17, with the makers stating that the decision was taken in the best interest of the industry.
Paid previews are scheduled on April 16 from 9 PM. The film has now completed its censor formalities and received a U/A certificate. The approved runtime is 2 hours and 55 minutes, making it almost a three-hour-long film. Considering the genre, the duration appears a bit lengthy, but if the screenplay holds well, it may not be a concern.
Wamiqa Gabbi plays the female lead. The film also features Tabu, Paresh Rawal, Rajpal Yadav, Jisshu Sengupta, Mithila Palkar, Rajesh Sharma, and Manoj Joshi in pivotal roles. Bhooth Bangla is jointly produced by Akshay Kumar, Ektaa Kapoor, and Shobha Kapoor.
